First Trailer: Tom Hardy In “Venom”

Following yesterday’s first poster, the first trailer has gone online for the Tom Hardy-led Marvel comics adaptation “Venom”.

Based on the enigmatic anti-hero who has often been a foil for Spider-Man, Michelle Williams and Riz Ahmed co-star in the San Francisco-set story about a man who becomes exposed to an alien symbiote and bonds with it in the comics.

How much of that will translate to screen is unclear. The trailer plays coy with much of the detail and won’t be what many expect. The film opens October 5th.
